additional 32 GB with microSD card, not included), a built-in
camera/video recording device, and access to thousands of Apps
in the Amazon Market. You’ll fi nd your AirPadX to be extremely
fast, with a very responsive touch screen.
Your AirPadX has all of the features you could want. It’s like
you’re fi tting a movie screen, MP3 player, e-book reader, Internet,

Now you don’t have to buy a Kindle, you can download the App
FREE from the Amazon Market.
Here’s some of the many other things your AirPadX can do:

There are many free games available on the Amazon Market. Just
a few examples are Angry Birds, Sudoku, Fruit Ninja, and Dragon
Fly. Just go to the Amazon Market, search for the name and

AirPadX. Just go to Amazon Market, search for and download
Pandora Internet Radio, then create and sign in to your account.
Shazam – just tap on the screen and Shazam listens to and
identifi es any song it hears. It even tells you who sang it, what
album it’s on, and gives you the opportunity to buy it on-line.

First charge the battery in your AirPadX, connect the included
power supply to the jack on the side of your AirPadX (next to the
ON/OFF button) and plug the power supply into an AC outlet. It
may take up to 4 hours to fully charge the unit.
The AirPadX does NOT charge via the included USB cable.
